'''Melinda Loveless''' (born on October 28<sup>th</sup>, 1975) is an American woman from New Albany, Indiana, who, at the age of sixteen, kidnapped, tortured, and brutally murdered a 12-year old girl named Shanda Sharer out of jealousy due to Shanda's close friendship with her former girlfriend Amanda Heavrin. Over the course of eight hours on January 11, 1992, Loveless and three accomplices - her friends [[Laurie Tackett]], [[Hope Rippey]], and [[Toni Lawrence]] - systematically tortured Sharer in various ways (physically, psychologically, and even sexually), before finally killing her in the early morning hours by burning her alive. The crime is considered to be one of the most gruesome and horrific crimes to have occurred in the history of the state of Indiana.
